On the last years of Rome, the Roman Empire faced many problems. The Romans suffered from inflation, unemployment, and barbarian invasion. Inflation was the rise in prices of food and water. Since the food and water was so expensive, the poor couldn’t buy it so they died or had hard times living without food. Unemployment was a big problem in the Roman Empire. Most of the poor and farmers did not have any jobs so they over crowded the cities, overcrowding of the cities was bad for the rich and the poor. The barbarian invasion was horrible, since they burned roman houses and killed many of the citizens. The barbarians were Germanic tribes that invaded Rome to destroy their land. The Roman had many accomplishments during their time. Many of the accomplishment were making concrete, creating aqueducts, having a good government, created the column, and having indoor plumbing. The concrete was to build roads, buildings, and vaults. We use concrete to build most stuff today too. Romans also had aqueducts that brought clean and fresh water to the cities. Today we use aqueducts to hold water. They also had a very stable government. Thru Roman Republic was very good, they also had judges who judged fairly. The Romans also had columns that hold their buildings up. On the columns the Romans usually carved pictures on it. Indoor plumbing was also one of the Romans accomplishments. The Romans waste goes through the sewers and in to the Tiber River. Today the Roman Empire influences our community with their building with concrete, there buildings, and the construction of aqueduct. Today we use concrete to build most of our buildings, walls and some roads, but most of our roads today are made out of asphalt. The Roman buildings were very prestigious designs.

We also use it to keep animals in too, or to keep…

One moral dilemma that often arises in many cases is where people who deserve to receive assistance are denied, because of minor circumstances. While an individual who abuses the system is allowed to receive help, and often more than what they should. Certain amounts of core values are required for a social worker to display such as service, social justice, dignity, integrity, and competence. These values are not always displayed by our clients so it is our job to display them at all times. When we see such discrepancies we are not to judge, but rather investigate and seek that the right course of action is taking to help those in need. This is where our use of ethical principles can come into action. Although we may not agree that the client who is abusing the system may or may not deserve assistance, as much as the next person. It is our job to put our personal self interests aside, and provide help where it is needed (Manning, 2003). It is also our job to respect those who are in need, and not discriminate or mistreat the client in any way. We are to show social justice and equality and ensure each client is treated…
